Seismic steel jacketing of rectangular RC bridge columns for the mitigation of lap-splice failures.
This paper investigated the use of external steel jacketing for seismic retrofit of non-ductile reinforced concrete (RC) bridge columns to prevent lap-splice failure. Three 1/2.5 scale specimens were tested under cyclic loads. The effectiveness of two types of steel jackets for improving the ductili...
